House Sitting Ridgeway

About: I’m a certified dog trainer through Animal Behavior College with hands-on training at Head of the Class Dog Training. I’ve trained shelter dogs and I volunteer at a cat rescue and do cat/kitten foster care. I’m used to everything from nervous side-eyes to full chaos energy. I’m patient, understanding, and love getting to know each pet’s unique personality so they feel comfortable and cared for. I work Monday–Friday from 7:00 AM–4:00 PM and work from home two days a week, which gives me some flexibility for drop-in visits and dog walks throughout the week. If my listed availability doesn’t quite match what you need, please feel free to reach out! I may be able to work something out depending on the day and time. In my home, I offer a structured routine with exercise, enrichment, and a secure 6-foot privacy fence for safe outdoor time. In your home, I follow your pet’s normal routine to keep things consistent and stress-free.

“Linda was a great find for us. We moved back to the area about a year ago and needed someone to stay with our “kids”. We’ve used Rover in the past so we turned to them again. After a lot of searching for someone that could take care of our elder pups needs we landed on Linda. It was short notice for her (I procrastinated) but she made it work. Linda stopped by the house for a visit with everyone and the kids approved. We were very pleased with Linda’s approach and style. She took care of our home and babies like they were her own. We highly recommend Linda. She’s a keeper. We will be booking her again.”

“Lindsey took care of our 2 dogs, a cat and our home. Not only was she wonderful with all the animals she kept my home neat and clean. She even changed the bedsheets. I would definitely recommend her. She is a blessing and made me feel comfortable leaving my family with her.”

“Wow, where do I begin? Natalie took such good care of my Bailey and my home. I can’t say enough about how wonderful she was and how great the little “Bailey cheat sheet” she made that summarized all the care instructions I provided at our meet and greet, and the beautiful picture she took of Bailey while I was away. She’s thorough and attentive and sent great pictures and messages to reassure me Bailey was fine. And she was! Thank you, Natalie! You’re wonderful and I can’t wait to book you again!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats since high school! I am comfortable and familiar with multiple pets at once and even some more eclectic animals like reptiles (turtles and snakes). I would only be able to come to your house to pet sit or walk, I would not be able to bring pets to my apt. I would only be able to pet sit in your home as I live in an apartment where I am unable to bring animals into my space.

About: Life is Good with pets! I have been providing professional pet care services for dogs for over 5 years. I have always had different dogs in my life from childhood to adulthood. I’ve seen how happy my own pet is from taking him on regular walks and I am excited to provide this same experience for other pets. I have a large, fenced yard in a semi-rural neighborhood, and I enjoy taking dogs on nice long walks. Pets are allowed on furniture to snuggle and I am also happy to crate train pets, if preferred. I am currently working from home, so I have most of my time to give attention and love to your pet. I am happy to provide these services at all times. I have plenty space and a fenced yard for your pet to play or simple go on potty breaks, if needed. The services requested will be depending on the customers offer :)

“We had a sitter cancel at the last minute when we were out of town, and Lana was a life-saver! And she is a total gem! Prompt, friendly, communicative, and a true animal lover! We wouldn’t hesitate to use her again if we were ever in the area! Such a pleasure! Thank you!!”

“We appreciated that she spent time with our dogs and kept them company while we were away. It was clear they were being given attention, which meant a lot to us. However, there were a couple of concerns that are important to mention. We have cameras in our home, which she was made aware of in advance. While most were turned off, we left the front door and one camera in the dogs’ area on. At one point, one of our dogs had an accident in that room. The footage showed that it was seen multiple times but not addressed. I only became aware of the situation after receiving several notifications and had to reach out to ask that it be cleaned. This made me feel that it may have been left unattended otherwise. Additionally, we had left our house key in a lockbox on the door. While the key was placed back inside, the combination was not reset. Since we were out of town, this felt like a safety concern, as it left our home more accessible than we were comfortable with. That said, I’m still giving her 4 stars. I know she’s just starting out, and these are all things that can easily be improved with a bit more experience. Overall, we’re grateful for the care she showed our dogs and appreciate her help.”

About: I’ve had dogs of my own my whole life. I’ve been taking care of others’ dogs for many years. I have experience with various breeds and sizes. Willing to do occasional jobs or recurring ones. I had to put set prices into my profile, but willing to discuss. I’m currently working part time and have a very flexible schedule. I am available any weekday and, with notice, can be available on weekends as well. I do not provide care in my home, but would love to come to your home where your dogs are most comfortable. I will provide any care needed- letting out in a fenced yard, taking for walks, feeding, administering meds, etc.

“We are so grateful that Anahita was able to help us with Boomer, even though it was a little last minute. She was very attentive and responsive. Very lucky to have her close by!!”
